TuxShell(1)

Name

TuxShell-Shell interface to BEA TUXEDO system utilities for Macintosh

Synopsis

TuxShell

Description

This Macintosh executable runs BEA TUXEDO system utilities. The user, using a word processor, creates a script of the utilities to be run, making sure to save the script in text-only format. The user then runs this script using the RUN command under the FILE menu. The user can also specify certain environment variables with the ENVIRONMENT command, located under the FILE menu. Under the UTILITIES menu can be found wud(1) and wud32(1). The only other option under the FILE menu is QUIT, which quits the TuxShell.

TuxShell runs a user defined script. The script accepts the BEA TUXEDO system commands gencat(1), mklanginfo(1), mkfldhdr(1), mkfldhdr32(1), bkenq(1), viewc(1), viewc32(1), viewdis(1) and viewdis32(1). Environment variables can be set and unset with the Set and Unset commands. Set and Unset have the following format:

Set Name Value
Unset Name

Command line options for any of the utilities may be specified in the script. However, no utility can read from stdin, so any attempt to do so will log an error.

If either the viewc(1) or viewc32(1) utility is to be run with the MPW compiler or the Metrowerks compiler, then the ToolServer program (available from Apple) must be running, with the TUXDIR and Commands environment variables set properly. If the THINK C compiler is to be used then the VIEWC_DNR.prj project must be located in the {TUXDIR}:lib directory. If the Metrowerks compiler is being used, then:

(a)
The MPW tools that are delivered with the Metrowerks compiler must be installed.

(b)
The mwscript script (found in $TUXDIR/bin) is executed by the viewc and viewc32 compilers.

Portability

TuxShell was designed to run on Macintosh systems.

Environment Variables

If the viewc(1) or viewc32(1) is to be run, then the CC variable must be set to THINK_C if the THINK C compiler is to be used. If these utilities are to be used with the MPW compiler, then the CC variable must be set to applec. If viewc(1) or viewc32(1) is to be run with the Metrowerks compiler, then the CC variable must be set to mwerks and the MWERKS_MPW variable must be set to the directory containing the MPW tools that come with the Metrowerks compiler.

Diagnostics

The {TUXDIR}:bin directory will contain stdout and stderr files resulting from the run of the script. Other messages may be logged in the ULOG file.

Note that view files compiled for THINK C are not compatible with view files compiled for the Metrowerks compiler.
